Just use ActiveRecord's`find_by_sql` method


The problem is it's a pain to debug through the call chain a.b.c.d.e to figure out where's the cause.


Can I make end-to-end encrypted application using it?

Currently making apps using convex.dev, how would you describe differnce between Jazz and Convex ?

Convex have their own db, would Jazz work with any database ?


People can mirror mobile screen to TV/Monitor and still use it.

With the tri-fold mobiles and Samsung Dex like feature coming, that day may not be far when mobile become the single work machine.


Recently I came to know about https://www.membrane.io/, which also follows similar approach, but it looks like that is more for internal apps and small projects.

How would you compare DBOS with that ?


From a high level what we offer is similar -- durable and reliable compute.

There isn't a lot of public information about how they are built, but from what I can tell you're right -- their architecture is more oriented for small projects.

It looks like they store the entire JS heap in a SQLLite database. We store schematized state checkpoints in Postgres compatible database, which makes it so that we can scale up and allow interesting things like querying the previous states and time travel debugging, where you can actually step though previously run workflows.


Would I be able to use all the python and npm packages with it. Would something opening a headless browser to scrap data work with DBOS ?


Yes, its normal Python/node.js so you an use all their packages.

We know of users running puppeeter to scrap data.


Recently DHH posted on twitter that Kama v2 will have support for multiple apps on a server.



I've been thinking about exploring convex, what are you doing with it?


rakkasjs - allow server and client code in the react component itself and it can be deployed on cloudfard

Convex - Provide backend db, background jobs, serverless functions

Trying to setup the simplest MVP framework for my sideprojects


Sounds like a solid stack


Can this be integrated within an app built using NextJS ?


Sadly No!


For Ruby on Rails there is: https://github.com/flippercloud/flipper


Why not use a state management library like xstate with jQuery ?
